We are now mid-October and finally starting to feel that cool Autumn air. As much as I love Summer, must confess, this change feels really good! We are now in the height of those amazing fall food flavors.
Pumpkin is a very nutrient dense food and love that you can also benefit from eating pumpkin seeds. One of the most nutrient dense seeds out there. I may have listed these benefits in my recent pumpkin cheesecake smoothie email. Sometimes we need to see things many times over in order to make the change. So check these great health benefits below!
Pumpkin’s Nutritional Power:
- It’s a Vitamin A superstar!
- Great for immunity & fighting infections.
- Rich in beta-carotene – amazing for eye health!
- Great for skin health – may protect against UV rays.
- May benefit heart health.
- May improve metabolic health.
- Nice amount of magnesium, zinc and protein.
Overnight oats have become a big breakfast staple in many homes. They offer convenience and amazing nutrition when done right. I tend to split the mason jar into several servings over a few days. I love making it last because it’s oh, so good! Truly feels like you are eating something super decadent. Another validation that nutrient dense foods can provide phenomenal flavor!
I do like to add some extra protein to my overnight oats and Truvani is once again running their 50% off sale (Also trying to time these emails when they are running the sale – just be aware it’s on vanilla and chocolate flavors only).

One of the best things about experiencing 4 seasons is the ability to focus on our seasonal foods. Remember the more local, the better. You are likely getting the highest nutritionally sound produce. This takes into consideration the shorter transit time, and harvested produce going from farm to your local market. Eating seasonally will always pack a stronger nutritional punch!
